Tripura Police seize 200 rounds of live cartridges, one arrested
Digital Desk | Agartala, Oct 29 (IANS) The Tripura Police on Thursday seized 200 rounds of live cartridges from a passenger-carrying vehicle during a naka checking operation at Maharani in Gomati district and arrested an arms trafficker in connection with the seizure, police said. A senior police official confirmed the seizure and arrest, saying that the vehicle, a Max, was travelling from Agartala towards Raishyabari in Dhalai district when it was intercepted by police near Maharani Police Outpost. According to the official, police stopped the vehicle during a routine checking operation and conducted a search, during which 200 rounds of live cartridges were recovered. One person, identified as Bimal Chakma alias Jayanta Lal Chakma, 37, was subsequently arrested in connection with the incident. However, police have withheld the identity of the arrested person, citing the ongoing investigation. Following the seizure, police launched a probe to determine the source of the cartridges and their intended destination. Investigators are also examining the circumstances under which the ammunition was being transported and whether other individuals were involved in the consignment. The investigation is underway to establish the full circumstances surrounding the transportation of the live cartridges and determine whether others were involved in the case. Tripura has witnessed multiple arrests of suspected arms dealers, mostly from Bihar, over the past few years, with most of the cases involving illegal firearms allegedly smuggled into the Northeastern state, often through train routes. On September 6, in a joint operation, the Tripura Police and Assam Rifles arrested two suspected arms dealers after they arrived in Agartala from Bihar. During the search, two pistols, three magazines and eight rounds of 7.65 mm ammunition, along with two mobile phones, were recovered from their possession. In a joint operation, the Tripura Police and the Railway Protection Force (RPF) had earlier arrested two suspected arms and drug peddlers after they arrived in Agartala on an express train. The Tripura Police personnel and RPF troops recovered a loaded pistol and around 100 bottles of banned cough syrup from the possession of two youths from Bihar after detaining them at the Agartala railway station. In November last year, the Tripura Police arrested three persons, including an alleged arms supplier from Bihar, after seizing two country-made firearms and four magazines during a patrol operation in Agartala. On May 8 last year, eight pistols and 16 empty magazines were recovered from an express train at Agartala railway station. The Government Railway Police (GRP) and RPF, in a joint operation, recovered the arms from the Tripura Sundari Express after the train arrived from Punjab's Firozpur. Tripura, which has an 856 km border with Bangladesh, is surrounded on three sides by the neighbouring country, making the Northeastern state very vulnerable and sensitive to cross-border migration issues, smuggling of drugs, arms and various other contrabands. Except for some patches, most of the frontier had been fenced to prevent smuggling, trans-border crimes, cross-border illegal movements by infiltrators and inimical elements.

JD-U to observe Nov 24 as Good Governance Day to mark Nitish Kumars two decades in power
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 29 (IANS) The Janata Dal (United) will observe November 24 as Good Governance Day (Sushasan Diwas) to mark the 20th anniversary of Nitish Kumar taking over as Bihar Chief Minister in 2005. The party will organise state-level Nitish Samvad programmes to highlight development initiatives, public welfare schemes and social reforms undertaken during his two-decade tenure. A preparatory meeting was held on Thursday at Karpoori Hall at the JD(U) state headquarters in Patna. Chaired by state president Umesh Singh Kushwaha, the meeting discussed the programmes framework, preparations and responsibilities for ensuring its successful organisation. JD(U) National Working President Sanjay Kumar Jha, state ministers Leshi Singh and Shweta Gupta, Legislative Council Deputy Leader Lalan Kumar Saraf, Chief Whip Sanjay Kumar Singh Gandhi, headquarters in-charge Shambhu Kushwaha and several other party office-bearers attended the meeting. Legislators, district presidents and representatives of various party wings were also present. Leshi Singh has been appointed coordinator of the programme. Addressing the meeting, Jha called for showcasing the achievements of Nitish Kumars government over the past two decades and highlighting their impact on peoples lives. He cited initiatives such as the bicycle scheme, Jeevika self-help groups and entrepreneurship programmes, directing party leaders to compile information about beneficiaries and prepare videos featuring their experiences. Jha described Nitish Kumar as both a political leader and a social reformer, citing initiatives such as human chains to raise awareness about social issues. He urged party workers to communicate the impact of the governments policies and public welfare schemes to people across Bihar. Kushwaha said Bihar faced major challenges in law and order, education, healthcare, employment and infrastructure when Nitish Kumar assumed office on November 24, 2005. He said the government subsequently pursued improvements in governance, development and welfare delivery, with a focus on reaching marginalised sections of society. He directed district presidents to constitute preparatory committees, coordinate with different party wings and assign responsibilities. The programmes should involve farmers, students, women, social workers, beneficiaries of reservation policies and pension schemes, among other groups. Beneficiaries of government schemes should be identified and invited to share how the initiatives have affected their lives. Leshi Singh said the programme was an important occasion for the party to highlight Nitish Kumars work for Bihars development and the welfare of different sections of society. She assured the leadership that preparations would be undertaken with the involvement of party leaders and workers. Saraf stressed the need to take information about the governments initiatives to every household, particularly to make younger generations aware of Bihars earlier conditions and the changes witnessed over the years. Sanjay Kumar Singh Gandhi also urged party workers to ensure the success of the programmes, highlighting Nitish Kumars emphasis on the rule of law and his efforts to connect with the public. At the meeting, Kushwaha also congratulated Jha on representing India at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
From Patna to Kanpur, can an emerging market fix dirty, broken cities?
Patna is set to become the first municipality in Bihar to issue municipal bonds, raising Rs 200 crore for urban infrastructure. This move highlights the ongoing need for investment in India's urban infrastructure amid challenges like urban flooding and sanitation. Other cities like Kanpur are also expected to follow with their own bond issues soon. However, many municipalities still struggle with reliable revenue sources needed for debt repayment.

Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 29 (IANS) In a major push to curb road accidents and ensure stricter compliance with traffic regulations, the Bihar government has ordered intensified enforcement actions across the state. As part of the ongoing drive, authorities have already suspended or cancelled the driving licenses of approximately 15,000 traffic offenders. Drivers caught behind the wheel despite having their licenses suspended or revoked now face immediate vehicle seizure. The directives were issued during an executive committee meeting of the Bihar Road Safety Councils lead agency held on Thursday under the chairmanship of Development Commissioner Mihir Kumar Singh. Reviewing state-level safety measures, Development Commissioner Singh instructed the Transport Department to ensure that all official recommendations for driving license suspensions are processed strictly within a 15-day timeframe. The administration aims to eliminate procedural delays in penalising repeat offenders and maintain a swift, zero-tolerance protocol against major traffic breaches. Under the newly enforced guidelines, routine traffic checks will verify license statuses electronically. If an individual whose license is under suspension or permanent cancellation is found operating a vehicle, law enforcement personnel will immediately impound the vehicle on the spot. Officials stated that this strict measure is designed to serve as a deterrent and prevent unauthorised drivers from endangering public safety. The high-level meeting focused on establishing an integrated approach to lower traffic fatalities and building a safer transit environment. Senior representatives from key departments participated in the strategy session, including the Transport Department, Road Construction Department, Home Department, Health Department, Disaster Management Department, Education Department, Urban Development and Housing Department, alongside officials from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). Emphasising inter-departmental coordination, the committee instructed agencies to accelerate road safety projects and enforce traffic guidelines rigorously statewide. The administration reaffirmed its commitment to curbing road mishaps through sustained monitoring, targeted enforcement drives, and strict legal action against violators.
MLC results are out, but how does the election work? Who votes, how are members chosen?
In the recent Legislative Council elections, the BJP secured 13 seats across multiple states including Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. The Samajwadi Party and NCP followed with five and two seats respectively, while other parties earned one seat each. MLC elections differ significantly from Assembly elections, as they are not decided by a direct vote from the general public.

Restore voting rights of 13 crore disenfranchised people, no need for rallies then: Manish Tewari
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Oct 29 (IANS) Congress MP Manish Tewari on Thursday questioned the BJP's 'Save Democracy, Remove Anarchy march, saying that restoring the voting rights of 13 crore disenfranchised people would eliminate the need for rallies. The remarks come amid a political face-off between the BJP and the Congress, with both parties claiming to be defending democracy. As the Congress prepares to take its vote chori campaign to Ramlila Maidan on November 1, the BJP has taken its campaign to the streets of Old Delhi, organising a Save Democracy, Remove Anarchy padyatra in busy Chandni Chowk. The BJP is also holding similar marches across the country. Led by BJP President Nitin Nabin and Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, the march comes amid concerns raised by traders who fear that barricading, traffic diversions and possible Metro restrictions due to marches and protests during the festive shopping season could disrupt business in the capital's wholesale markets. Speaking to IANS, Tewari questioned the purpose of the BJP's march in an area that is not a designated protest sight in the national Capital. What is this padyatra even about? We are fighting for voting rights. Restore the voting rights of the 13 crore people who have been disenfranchised, and there will be no need to take out any rallies, he said. Tewari also reacted to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's remarks on the recent Member of Legislative Council (MLC) poll results, saying that every election had its own context. The context of every election is different. MLC elections have a distinct electoral constituency. In such a situation, it does not behove someone holding the office of Prime Minister to make such remarks. As I said earlier, every election has its own unique context and scope, he said. On Wednesday, PM Modi took a swipe at the Congress over MLC elections held across 28 seats in Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka, highlighting that the polls were conducted using ballot papers and questioning how many seats the Congress had won. However, the Nagpur MLC election result provided the Congress with an opportunity to target the BJP, including PM Modi and Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis as it retained the seat in the area that houses the RSS' national headquarters. The Maharashtra results also provided a boost to the Opposition MVA, which won three of the five seats that went to polls in the state.

17 hospitalised in Amethi after consuming food at fair
Digital Desk | Amethi, Oct 29 (IANS) In what appears to be a case of food poisoning, around 102 people fell ill after eating 'khasta' (junk) food at a fair in Uttar Pradesh's Amethi district, with 17 of them, including children, requiring hospitalisation. The incident was reported in Kotwa village of Amethi district, where around 102 people reportedly fell sick after eating 'khasta' food at a fair, triggering panic in the area. As people complained of vomiting and diarrhea, a team from the state government's health department rushed to the village. Later, the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) also reached the spot and personally supervised the medical examination and treatment of those affected. During the inspection, 39 children and 63 adults were found to be ill. Considering the seriousness of their condition, 17 people, including 10 children and 7 adults, were referred to the State Medical College in Amethi's Tiloi for treatment. According to the CMO, the health department team reached the village following a complaint from the village head and is investigating the matter. He said the situation is now under control. Last month, a similar incident was reported from Patna in Bihar, where more than three dozen students reportedly fell ill with symptoms including vomiting, diarrhea, fever and weakness at Munger Engineering College. The affected students were taken to the Sadar Hospital in the area by ambulances arranged by the college administration. After receiving first aid and medical attention, most of them were discharged and returned to the hostel. An assistant professor and some college staff members were also reportedly unwell. Food poisoning was suspected as a possible cause. According to reports, prasad prepared at the college for Vishwakarma Puja was served a day before. Students, professors and other staff members consumed the offering. While some students reportedly developed symptoms on the same day, a larger number began complaining of vomiting and diarrhea a day later. Some also reported fever and weakness. After receiving information that several hostel residents had fallen ill around the same time, the college administration acted promptly and arranged for the affected students to be taken to Sadar Hospital. Following treatment and first aid, their condition improved, and they were sent back to the college hostel.

People rewarded my work: Congress' Abhijit Wanjari on Nagpur Graduates' win
Digital Desk | Nagpur, Oct 29 (IANS) Abhijit Govindrao Wanjari, the Congress candidate who secured the party's sole victory in the MLC elections, said the mandate he received from voters in the Nagpur Graduates' constituency reflected the development work he had undertaken during his previous term. Wanjari defeated his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) rival, Sudhakar Kohle, by a margin of 3,271 votes after a prolonged counting process in the Nagpur Graduates' constituency, a region widely regarded as a stronghold of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). Speaking to IANS after his victory, Wanjari said he had been confident of winning the election because of the work he had carried out over the past six years and the support he believed he enjoyed among voters. He also credited the Congress and its allies for working alongside him during the campaign. I was very confident about my win. I have done significant work in the past six years, so I knew that the voters were with me. Our party and allies worked with me. People have rewarded me for the development work carried out by us, Wanjari said. Just gathering a crowd does not bring votes. However, we have worked for the public, for development, and on that basis, I contested this election and subsequently won, he added. Wanjari also expressed concern over the growing doubts surrounding Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), saying that some voters had begun questioning whether their votes were being counted in favour of the candidates they had chosen. People have now started doubting the EVMs. They feel that their votes are going to the wrong person. That is why the elections should be held through ballot papers. This practice has been followed by several developed nations too, Wanjari said. With this win, the Congress opened its account in the elections held for 28 Legislative Council seats across four states -- Karnataka, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra. The outcome assumes particular significance as Nagpur is the home city of Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and also falls within the Lok Sabha constituency represented by Union Minister Nitin Gadkari. Nagpur is also the national headquarters of the RSS, an organisation with a strong ideological and organisational presence in the region. Reacting to his defeat, BJP candidate Sudhakar Kohle maintained that his party had performed well when the overall results of the MLC elections were taken into account. He defended the BJP's campaign, saying that the party's senior leadership, including the Chief Minister, had actively participated in the election process. When we look at the bigger picture, the BJP has won these elections. There was no shortcoming in the election campaign. Our Chief Minister and other top leaders campaigned by going to every booth. I thank them for this, Kohle told IANS.

MLC poll results show people disillusioned with BJP, claim Opposition leaders
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 29 (IANS) Opposition leaders on Thursday claimed that the results of the Legislative Council elections in four states reflected growing public disillusionment with the BJP, pointing to the Samajwadi Party's gains in Uttar Pradesh and the Congress-led Maha Vikas Aghadi's victory in three of the five seats in Maharashtra. Speaking to IANS, Samajwadi Party MP Awadhesh Prasad claimed the results had sent a message that the BJP government's days were numbered, alleging that its policies had troubled every section of society, including the youth, farmers and business community. He also claimed that people believed the election process had been conducted forcefully. The MLC election results send a message that the days of the BJP government are numbered. It will remain in power only until the elections are declared, as every section of society is troubled by its policies, actions and decisions, he said. Samajwadi Party Spokesperson Ashutosh Verma said the party had secured decisive victories in five of the 11 seats in Uttar Pradesh, arguing that its winning margins demonstrated organisational preparedness. On the question of alliances, he said the party would follow the approach adopted in the 2024 elections and support candidates contesting their respective seats. In places where some people fail to get even 2,000 votes, the Samajwadi Party is winning by margins of 17,00018,000 votes. This shows Samajwadi Partys preparation, he said About the coalition, we will follow the same pattern of 2024. This is for sure that we want people to win seats they fight on. This is Akhilesh Yadavs motto too, he added. Congress MP Mallu Ravi congratulated voters in Nagpur for electing the party's candidate and pointed to the victory in the RSS headquarters as a significant political development. He also expressed confidence that the Congress would win more seats in the coming general elections. I want to tell PM (Modi) and HM (Shah) that Congress is getting elected in Nagpur which is the headquarters of the RSS. Similarly, another important constituency is the PM's constituency which the BJP lost, he said. Both were won by the Congress and its allies. That shows that in the coming general elections Congress is going to win, he added. Meanwhile, RJD MLA Bhai Virendra called for introspection among Opposition parties, saying the Congress, as the senior partner, should have taken the initiative to resolve differences through dialogue. He alleged that the party had appeared inclined to dictate terms rather than take regional parties and smaller allies along. Congress leads the Opposition at the Centre, while we are a major party in Bihar and hold the Leader of Oppositions post. It is Congress responsibility to coordinate with regional parties and smaller allies across states, he said. NCP(SP) National Spokesperson Clyde Crasto described the Maharashtra results as encouraging, saying his party had won two seats and the Congress one, giving the MVA three of the five seats. He said the outcome was disappointing for the ruling alliance despite its governments at the Centre and in the state. The elections to 28 Legislative Council seats were held across Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka on October 23, with counting beginning on October 27.
Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has announced the Bihar D.El.Ed Spot Admission 2026 schedule for vacant seats in non-government D.El.Ed training institutes for the 2026-28 session. Eligible candidates can apply from 2 to 4 November 2026. The final merit list will be published on 7 November 2026, followed by the nomination process from 7 to 12 November.

Congress should introspect after MLC poll results, says JD(U), BJP leaders
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 29 (IANS) The Janata Dal (United) and the BJP on Thursday criticised the Congress party over its performance in the recent Legislative Council elections, saying the party and its INDIA bloc allies should respond to the questions raised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding the use of ballot papers. The remarks came after PM Modi took a swipe at Congress over the results of the Legislative Council elections held across 28 constituencies in four states using ballot papers. In a post on X on Wednesday, the Prime Minister said, MLC elections in 28 seats across 4 big states - Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka. Elections held using ballot papers. Guess how many seats Congress won. Speaking to IANS, JD(U) national spokesperson Rajiv Ranjan said Congress and its INDIA bloc allies should respond to the points raised by the Prime Minister. Congress and its INDIA bloc allies should respond to the points raised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his tweet. Congress has repeatedly demanded voting through ballot papers instead of EVMs. However, in elections held across 28 constituencies for the Legislative Councils in four states, Congress failed to achieve success anywhere except the Nagpur Graduates' constituency. In Karnataka, where Congress is in power, the BJP and JD(S) together won all four seats contested, he said. Ranjan further said Congress had failed to open its account in Uttar Pradesh ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections and had suffered a setback in Bihar, where it previously had one MLC. This clearly shows that instead of demanding elections through ballot papers or other methods, Congress and Rahul Gandhi should reconsider the party's strategy on public issues. Rahul Gandhi should introspect and atone for bringing Congress to such a poor state, he added. BJP MP Yogender Chandoliya also criticised the Congress for repeatedly questioning the use of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs). Congress had been demanding for a long time that votes should not be cast using EVMs, even though EVMs were introduced during the Congress government's tenure in Uttar Pradesh. Our view is that Congress managed to win one seat, opening its account with great difficulty. Now, will Rahul Gandhi accept this outcome or not? he said. Chandoliya alleged that Congress would once again raise questions about the election results, and that the party had developed a habit of making allegations over various issues. Getting even one seat seems like a huge achievement for Congress, as making allegations on everything has become a habit for them. Otherwise, the results across the country are not going to be in their favour, whether they talk about EVMs, SIR or ballot papers, he added. The BJP won 13 of the 28 Legislative Council seats contested across Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka, while Congress secured only one seat.

BJP Bihar state president Sanjay Saraogi on Thursday targeted the Congress following the MLC election results, saying that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had exposed the party's duplicitous character and questioning its claims over the use of electronic voting machines (EVMs). Reacting to the Prime Minister's tweet on the election results, Saraogi told ANI that the elections were conducted using ballot papers, with votes cast by educated citizens, socially conscious individuals and teachers, yet the Congress faced a defeat. The Prime Minister has rightly exposed the dark truth behind the Congress party's duplicitous character and its crocodile tears. These elections were conducted using ballot papers, with votes cast by educated citizens, socially conscious individuals and teachers. Yet, even in this format, the Congress faced a complete rout, Saraogi said. He further claimed that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's political base had weakened and alleged that the public had lost faith in...
Cong no longer relevant, should stop politicising every issue: BJP MP on MLC election results
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 29 (IANS) BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal on Thursday said that the results of the Legislative Council elections had made it clear that the Congress is no longer relevant in Indian politics, adding that the party should introspect and stop politicising every issue. His remarks came a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a swipe at the Congress over the results of the Legislative Council elections held across four states using ballot papers. Speaking to IANS, Khandelwal said, This has made it clear that the Congress is no longer relevant in politics. Earlier, it used to be said that EVMs were hacked, and the blame was pinned on the Election Commission. Then allegations of vote theft were made, which had no basis. Now, the Congress was demanding elections through ballot papers, and the MLC elections were held using the same ballot papers. The Congress has now been wiped out, and the party should introspect and realise that there should not be politics over every issue. People give a befitting reply when the time comes and deliver their verdict, he added. Backing Union Home Minister Amit Shah's statement regarding the MLC election results, the BJP MP said that demanding resignations had become a habit of the opposition parties. What the Home Minister said is right because demanding resignations has become a habit for them. They demand resignations over every small or big issue, turn every matter into a controversy and call for resignations. So, when will they resign over the ballot box? What Home Minister Amit Shah said is completely right, Khandelwal said. He further alleged that Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, and other opposition leaders would avoid taking responsibility for the election results. Now, Rahul Gandhi and all the opposition parties will run away, hiding their faces, but the public is watching all of this, he added. Khandelwal also reacted to Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav's remarks targeting the BJP over the Varanasi Legislative Council election results and said that the SP chief was also gradually losing his relevance in politics. Akhilesh Yadav, too, like other parties, is gradually losing his relevance. Consequently, while he used to speak with some sense occasionally in the past, he is now making baseless statements that have no foundation, Khandelwal said. The BJP won 13 of the 28 Legislative Council seats contested across Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka.

Dont blame the process, introspect: Rajasthan CM advises Congress on MLC poll defeat
Digital Desk | Jaipur, Oct 28 (IANS) Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma has criticised the Congress for questioning the electoral process following repeated election defeats, saying the party should introspect on its leadership, policies and declining public support instead of blaming the system. Sharma said that whether elections are conducted through ballot papers or Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), questioning the process cannot change the people's mandate when voters have distanced themselves from a political party. He cited elections to 28 Legislative Council (MLC) seats in Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka, conducted using ballot papers, to question the Congress's electoral performance. He said the results should prompt the party to examine the reasons behind its setbacks rather than raise questions about the electoral process. The Chief Minister alleged that despite repeated electoral defeats, the Congress was unwilling to acknowledge its weaknesses or establish accountability within its leadership. Instead of undertaking a serious review of its performance, the party was questioning the electoral system, he said. Sharma maintained that the Congress needed to look beyond EVMs and assess its leadership, policies and diminishing support among voters to understand the reasons for its electoral losses. Emphasising the importance of democratic values, Sharma said the people's verdict was paramount in a democracy and every political party had a responsibility to respect it. He argued that accepting the mandate and taking responsibility for electoral setbacks were essential to maintaining democratic conventions. The Chief Minister also called on the Congress to undertake introspection and identify the factors contributing to its declining electoral fortunes. According to him, questioning the electoral process without addressing internal weaknesses would not help the party regain public confidence. Sharma's remarks come amid the continuing political debate over electoral accountability and allegations concerning the voting process. His criticism centred on the need for political parties to accept election results and focus on strengthening their connection with voters. He reiterated that the Congress should identify the shortcomings in its leadership and policies rather than attribute its defeats to the electoral system, stressing that public trust remained central to electoral success

People rejected anarchistic politics: Nitin Nabin on Congs zero score in MLC polls
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 28 (IANS) Bharatiya Janata Party national president Nitin Nabin on Wednesday claimed that the Congress had scored zero on ballot papers in the recent MLC elections held in Karnataka, Maharashtra, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, asserting that the public was repeatedly rejecting what he termed the partys anarchistic politics. In a post on X, Nabin said the results showed that whether through EVMs or ballot papers, the peoples trust and blessings remained firmly with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Congresss score on ballot papers too is 0 in the MLC elections of Karnataka, Maharashtra, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh! The public is repeatedly rejecting Congresss anarchistic politics outright. Be it EVM or ballot, the publics trust and blessings are only with the honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendramodi ji, he wrote. The BJP presidents remarks come in the backdrop of the oppositions sustained campaign questioning the integrity of electronic voting machines and alleging large-scale electoral irregularities. By highlighting the Congresss poor performance even in elections conducted through the traditional ballot system, Nabin sought to counter the oppositions narrative against EVMs. Party leaders interpreted the results as a clear endorsement of the Modi governments policies and a rejection of the Congresss political approach. They argued that the outcomes in the four states reflected the growing disconnect between the Congress and the electorate. Nabins statement is part of the BJPs broader strategy to project the Prime Ministers continued popularity and to dismiss opposition claims of electoral manipulation. The party has maintained that the Congress is raising the EVM issue only to cover up its own organisational and political failures. The MLC elections in the four states had been keenly watched as indicators of the relative strengths of the major political parties. According to the BJP, the Congresss inability to open its account in these contests underscores the publics preference for the ruling dispensation at the Centre. As political temperatures rise ahead of upcoming assembly and other elections, both the BJP and the Congress are expected to intensify their campaigns around issues of electoral integrity, governance and public trust. Nabins post indicates that the BJP will continue to project recent electoral outcomes as a vote of confidence in Prime Minister Modis leadership.

No slogans, just look at results: Hardik Patels dig at Congress over MLC results
Digital Desk | Gandhinagar, Oct 28 (IANS) Gujarat BJP MLA Hardik Patel on Wednesday took a swipe at the Congress over its performance in Legislative Council elections across four states, highlighting that the polls were conducted using ballot papers, but the party failed to win a single seat. In a post on social media platform X, Patel wrote: 4 major states. 28 MLC seats. Elections conducted using ballot papers! Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka. Now, take a guess: how many of these 28 seats did Congress actually win? No slogans. No excuses. Just look at the results! The post came amid counting and the declaration of results for 28 Legislative Council seats across the four states. The Congress failed to secure a victory in the election cycle, with the results providing ammunition for the BJP to question the Opposition partys arguments in favour of ballot papers amid its allegations concerning electronic voting machines (EVMs). The outcome in Karnataka was a particular setback for the Congress, which is in power in the state. The BJP-Janata Dal (Secular) alliance swept the four Legislative Council seats there, including the Bengaluru Teachers constituency previously held by the Congress. In Uttar Pradesh, the BJP won four seats, and the Samajwadi Party secured two, while counting continued in other constituencies. Bihar also witnessed setbacks for established parties. Prashant Kishors Jan Suraaj Party won its first Legislative Council seat after its candidate Suresh Rai defeated former Bihar Congress president Madan Mohan Jha in the Darbhanga Teachers constituency. The Rashtriya Janata Dal also wrested the Patna Teachers seat from five-term BJP MLC Nawal Kishore Yadav. Counting for other constituencies was continuing, while results in Maharashtra were still emerging. Patels intervention carries an added political dimension given his own journey from being a prominent critic of the BJP to becoming one of its legislators in Gujarat. He rose to prominence in 2015 as the face of the Patidar reservation agitation, which challenged the then BJP-led state government. The movement made him a significant political figure ahead of the 2017 Gujarat Assembly elections, when the Congress improved its performance against the BJP. Patel joined the Congress in March 2019 and was appointed working president of the Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee in July 2020. However, differences with the party leadership grew, and he resigned from the Congress on May 18, 2022, criticising its functioning and leadership. He formally joined the BJP on June 2, 2022, in Gandhinagar, subsequently receiving the partys ticket from Viramgam for the Gujarat Assembly elections. Patel won the seat in December 2022, defeating Aam Aadmi Party candidate Amarsinh Thakor by more than 51,000 votes, and entered the Assembly as a BJP MLA. His latest post continues his criticism of his former party, using the ballot-paper results to challenge the Congresss political messaging on electoral processes.

'Zero Check Karlo Bhai': Piyush Goyal mocks Congress with AI-generated swipe at Rahul Gandhi
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 28 (IANS) Union Minister Piyush Goyal on Wednesday shared an AI-generated image targeting Congress leader Rahul Gandhi after the party failed to win any of the 28 seats contested in Legislative Council elections across Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka. The image posted by Goyal depicted Rahul Gandhi as an employee at a petrol station. A fuel dispenser in the image displayed the names of the four states where the elections were held, while the meter showed figures reading .00, symbolising the Congress party's tally in the elections. Sharing the image on social media, Goyal captioned it, ero check karlo Bhai. The post was part of a broader social media campaign launched by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its leaders following the election results. The BJP used the outcome to attack the Congress, highlighting the party's failure to secure a single seat in the contests held across the four states. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and several BJP leaders also took aim at the Congress over its repeated criticism of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) and its demand for a return to ballot-paper voting. The ruling party argued that the election outcome undermined the opposition's allegations regarding the electoral process. Earlier in the day, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman hit back at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of politicising issues and casting baseless aspersions on Indian industry following his remark that the Tata Group was being criminally destroyed. Being the Leader of the Opposition, I suggest you refrain from politicising every issue. Also, casually labelling commercial and legal matters as criminal is unacceptable, the Finance Minister said in a post on X. Gandhi had alleged that Indian businesses were being treated as the plaything of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah. Tata is being criminally destroyed, and no business leader dares say a word. How long will you stay silent? Until they own you? the Congress leader had said.
